Cover Manager

It would be very helpful if you change a cover allocation AFTER you have published the cover that it notifiies the allocated cover teacher that they are no longer required, ie the cover has been cancelled (as it currently does not and you have to ...

We have a number of lessons on our timetable where there is more than one teacher allocated to a set - e.g. the lesson is team taught, one teacher is shadowing the other, they alternate taking the lesson, or use a breakout room. If one of those te...

In HR Manager > School tab, we entered the TA settings as follows: Teaching staff = No Teaching Assistant = Yes In doing so, we realized it has a major impact on Cover Manager i.e. they no longer on the free list to do cover! Even when we grant...

Staff currently only know if cover is cancelled when it falls off their timeline - a formal notification confirming that cover is no longer required would be extremely helpful. Ditto when a room closure takes place and staff and students are notif...

It is sometimes necessary to move lessons from one place to another. This does not seem to be possible as to move a lesson from a room, the room needs to be "closed" which then means it cannot be used to house another lesson. This seems to me to b...

It would be REALLY helpful if the period timings were able to be on the cover slips please. Many thanks, Laura
